USING THE WORK PIECE
CLAMP
WARNING In some operations, the
clamp assembly may interfere with the
operation of the lower blade guard
assembly. To reduce the risk of serious
personal injury, always make sure that
there is no interference with the lower
blade guard prior to beginning any
cutting operation.
WARNING Before performing any
assembly or adjustment, always
disconnect from power source.
Failure to unplug your saw could result
in accidental starting causing serious
injury.
WARNING To avoid risk of personal
injury, if movement is tight or if there is
play in the adjustment, have your saw
serviced by an authorized service
center before using or contact (866)
902-9690 for assistance.
Step 1: Unplug the saw.
Step 2: Insert the work piece clamp into
one of the two receptacles in the base
behind the fence, until the end of the
clamp’s bar touches the bottom of
receptacle.
Step 3: Adjust the clamp height so it does
not touch the upper sliding fence, tighten
the knob on the horizontal bracket to lock
the height of the clamp.
Step 4: Move the saw head up and down,
forward and back to make sure it clears
the clamp.
Step 5: Turn knob of the work piece clamp
in clockwise direction to firmly clamp the
work piece in place (Fig. 18).
Step 6: To remove the work piece clamp,
turn knob of the work piece clamp in
counter-clockwise direction and pull out
the whole clamp to remove.
WARNING When using the work
piece clamp included to secure the
work piece, clamp the work piece on
one side of the blade only. The work
piece must remain unclamped on the
other side of the blade to prevent the
blade from binding in the work piece.
The work piece binding the blade will
cause the motor to stall and cause kick
back, result in possible serious injury.
WARNING There may be extreme
compound cuts where the clamp
cannot be used. Support work piece
with your hand outside the “No Hands”
zone. Do not try to cut short pieces that
cannot be clamped and cause your
hand to be in the “No Hands” zone.
